Issa Rae, whose five-season run with HBO's Insecure came to a close with a finale on Sunday (Dec 26), has dipped more than a toe into the music business.

She's started her own record label, Raedio, and is producing a new show about aspiring rappers, using her existing career to help launch music ones.
